Jiffy Corn Dog Recipe

I used to adore going to the county fair and eating a jiffy corn dog as a youngster. Something about the delectable, crunchy crust wrapped around a warm, soft dog makes my mouth swim. I developed my jiffy corn dog recipe since I couldn’t always make it to the fair.

Here’s my tried-and-true recipe for the ideal jiffy corn dog. So gather your stuff and turn on the burner; it’s time to cook!

What Makes These Corn Dogs so Special?

These corn dogs vary from regular corn dog recipes in that they are prepared using Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix. A jiffy corn dog is a traditional dish that just takes a few minutes to prepare and is always a success with both kids and adults. It’s essentially a hot dog battered in cornmeal and cooked till crispy.

Jiffy is different from your average packaged corn muffin mix in that it provides the corn dogs a crunchier, more textured surface that is out of this world wonderful.

Another thing that distinguishes these corn dogs is that they are fried. While frying isn’t the healthiest method to prepare food, let’s be honest: every now and then, you simply need a little fried food in your life. And these corn dogs are absolutely worth it.

Don’t worry if you’ve never cooked corn dogs before. It is quite simple. The most difficult aspect is getting the batter to stick to the hot dog. But once you’ve mastered it, it’s all downhill from there.

That’s all there is to it! If you’re searching for a tasty dessert that’s guaranteed to delight, try this recipe. I promise you will not be disappointed!

How to Make Jiffy Corn Dogs?

You can make the ideal jiffy corn dog in no time with this recipe! They’re not only delicious, but they’re also simple to create. Furthermore, gathering all of the essential components for this dish is the simple part.

While the cornbread mix is the key element in this recipe, giving the corn dogs their fluffy texture and somewhat sweet taste, I also like to add a few more ingredients to the batter to add flavor and crunch.

Simply go to your local grocery shop and get a box of Jiffy cornbread mix, 12 hot dogs, 2 eggs, and flour.

The remainder of the components are probably already in your cupboard, as you will need some sweet paprika, salt, dried oregano, and water, as well as frying oil!

Another important item to remember is 12 long wooden skewers, and you’re ready to go!

Here are a number of incredibly simple steps to making great corn dogs:

Step 1: Preparing the Hot Dogs

Place the oil in a large saucepan or deep fryer to warm it up before you begin. While the oil is heating up, gently put wooden skewers into hot dogs to reach the halfway point.

After that, pat the hot dogs dry with a paper towel and sprinkle them with flour.

Step 2: Preparing the Batter

While using a hand mixer is the ideal way to get a compact and sticky mixture, you may also try combining them with a spoon. Simply combine the Jiffy cornbread mix, 2 eggs, 3 cups of flour, 1 cup of warm water, and the spices in a mixing bowl.

Step 3: Finishing Up

Fill a large glass halfway with the liquid and begin dipping the hot dog skewers in it. After dipping a hot dog in the mixture, fry it for 3 minutes in heated oil.

Turn the hot dog often to ensure that it is evenly cooked on all sides. A corn dog is done when it is golden brown. Set them on paper towels to absorb any extra oil.

Variations and Serving Suggestions

There are a couple things you can do to truly elevate your Jiffy corn dogs. To begin, add some shredded cheese to the batter for a cheesy touch. Another option is to chop the corn dogs into bite-sized pieces and serve them with your favorite dipping sauce as dippers.

Once you’ve made a batch of them, there are a few various ways to serve them.

If you want to go fancy, provide a variety of dipping sauces on the side. Ketchup, mustard, honey, barbecue sauce, and ranch dressing are all excellent choices.
